I have a few banjo's from a UC, and I have 2 Skyline diffs. No brakes on most of them, and no disc brakes for the skyline diff. What I need, is someone to weld all the brackets onto the skyline diff, and get it ready for me to install it. (Going on a UC hatch)

Can anyone recommend a place? I am in Bentleigh.

I took mine to Vic Diffs in Mitcham. They seemed to know all about them and I got them to check and swap a 3.36 with a 3.08. So far so good. Not sure if they do fabrication though.

I rang Taverna Engineering. They can do the job, and seem to be knowledgeable.

David,

I got my 9 inch diff built by Adrian at John Taverna Chassis - Leo St Fawkner. I'm no expert and he helped me sort through what I wanted and has heaps of knowledge. My son (mechanic) had a look at it and thought it was well constructed. It is in the car now (not running) and all the brackets etc line up well. I didn't mention it earlier as I wasn't sure you wanted to travel that far. Cheers Ron

I will get 2 built. One for the road car, and one for the race car. I have a full spool for the race car. But I noticed on performance forum an LSD for the BW diff that seems ok value. So could put that in the road car.
